[ It hasn't been long since Cambria's arrived. She's heard a very rough idea, and as much as it annoys her it annoys her she's here and Coheed isn't, it annoys her more that she can't do anything. It's why, after taking a deep breath, she fumbles with her NV and finds the video option, pressing her lips to a thin line. She's found her way to a ( Read more... )

In the admittedly limited time I’ve been kept in this place it’s become apparent to me that, in a way familiar to me in the sense of it also occurring in my “home”, that there’s an unfortunate preoccupation with the genetics of metahuman powers that consequently removes focus and resources on improving the human¹ genome. To elaborate ( Read more... )

[The voice is level, thoughtful, composed, and perhaps familiar.]To those who do not know me, my name is Miles Edgeworth. Until last...October, it seems, I had been a resident of this city, but - as happens to so many - I was returned home. I arrived back here earlier today. Though I've already spoken with some of my contacts regarding some of the ( Read more... )

The snowglobe things didn't stay around that long, but it was really nice to get to see a little bit of home! I didn't think they would melt like that, though. It was sort of surprising... I wish I could have kept it a little bit longer. I'm really curious what all the rest of them looked like, though! What was in everybody's world?

[Kurt has set the NV on the table to record while he works on taking decorations down in his apartment. There are boxes all around which he's filled with all the trinkets he'd bought for the season, and adds a final string of garland to one of them before sitting down at the table with a sigh.Well that's that. The Christmas season is officially ( Read more... )

[ When the feed turns on, it's probably because Ella had, in her haste, thrown it onto the floor in her house. There's an odd angle, but the -SLAM- of a door and growl of some creature on the other side was unmistakeable. Ella's breathing is ragged as if she'd run for miles. What is visible of her are her legs and the lower half of a white cloak ( Read more... )

Huh. The Year of the Dragon already? Boy, time flies here. [She tries to not sound too crushed about it. That she wasn't with her parents and couldn't even get to celebrate the whole process as she was used to do. No relatives or shrines to visit. It gave her awareness that she spent too much time away from home.] I...I hope that my nengajo didn't ( Read more... )

[The video feed flickers to life and Soul can be seen sitting indoors in one of the starter apartment living rooms. If someone were to look closely they'll notice the outline of a feather behind his right shoulder. It's nothing, really...]

Hey, the name's Soul. [He rubs the side of his neck absently.] Apparently I've been to this city before. But ( Read more... )

[Dr. Yumeno is sitting in the waiting room of a small and empty clinic this morning, rolling a smooth glass ball between his hands on the coffeetable. He's restocked a few of the magazines. He's cleaned the fishtank. He's still on duty, and running out of things to do to keep himself preoccupied from his own thoughts]

It's another slow morning at ( Read more... )

[What we have here is an annoyed scientist in her lab, her NV recording her doing some tests on her snowglobe, because UNLIKE SOME PEOPLE, she's not trying to bribe people out of their own. She is well aware that she's being recorded, but she's talking to herself anyway.]

Something like this turns up and SERO's pushing for new personnel. Hmmm. ( Read more... )
